Walker Of The Worlds

Lin Mu was both confused and intrigued upon hearing Kunzi's words.

"Outlawed in some and legal in others?" Lin Mu asked for clarification.

"Yes. The kingdoms of the Eight Kingdom alliance all have certain cultivation techniques that they have banned within their kingdoms. There are several reasons for it. But on the surface, they say that they have banned techniques that had been used by great criminals in the past.

But in reality, most of the techniques they outlaw are those that are counters against their royal cultivation techniques. Which is why there are different banned techniques in different kingdoms." Kunzi gave a quick explanation.

Just from hearing this, Lin Mu quickly deciphered the ploy of the kingdoms.

While it seemed like outlawing a technique that went against their own was fine, it had greater implications. After all, if they were so worried they could very well modify their own techniques to have a counter to that.

'No… they probably have that already. This seems to be a much wider thing…' Lin Mu thought to himself.

"All of it is just ridiculous. I am from the Ridge Valley kingdom, and the technique I use is perfectly legal there. But then I was forced by some local officials to leave the kingdom and went to the Lush Stream kingdom which is located just next to it.

I never knew the technique was illegal there and was then caught." Immortal Taegu spoke up seeing that Lin Mu didn't seem to be unreasonable.

"Oh?" Lin Mu raised a brow, smelling the foul play at work.

"Tell me, were you always a bandit?" Lin Mu questioned.
